Product Manager

The role owns the product lifecycle for a core platform: translating business goals into a technical roadmap, then driving execution with engineering through discovery, prioritization, and launch. This is a hands‑on PM role for someone comfortable sitting in architecture reviews in the morning and presenting metrics to leadership in the afternoon.

You will work directly with engineering leads, designers, and go‑to‑market teams to ship products where technical depth matters - API design tradeoffs, data infrastructure constraints, and integration complexity are all part of the daily conversation.

• Own and evolve the product roadmap for a core platform area, sequencing initiatives against engineering capacity, technical dependencies, and business impact
• Write clear product requirements documents (PRDs) and specs that engineers can execute from without ambiguity - including API contracts, data models, and edge‑case behavior
• Drive discovery through customer interviews, competitive analysis, and usage data analysis in tools like Amplitude or Mixpanel to validate problems before committing resources
• Manage sprint‑level execution: backlog grooming, story acceptance, scope negotiation, and unblocking engineers during implementation
• Define and track success metrics post‑launch; run A/B tests and present results with recommendations to senior leadership
• Coordinate cross‑functionally with design, sales, and support to ensure launches land with enablement, documentation, and pricing in place
• Serve as the escalation point for roadmap conflicts and make defensible prioritization calls using frameworks like RICE or weighted scoring

• 3-6 years of product management experience, including at least 2 years working on technical products (developer tools, data platforms, infrastructure, or API‑based products)
• Demonstrated ability to write high‑quality specs and PRDs; comfort discussing technical concepts like REST APIs, event schemas, and system latency with engineers
• Hands‑on experience with SQL and product analytics tools (Amplitude, Mixpanel, Looker, or similar) - able to pull own data rather than waiting on analysts
• Track record of shipping products through full lifecycle: discovery, build, launch, and iteration on measurable outcomes
• Strong prioritization and stakeholder management skills; experience saying no with a clear rationale
• Bachelor's degree in a technical field, or equivalent practical experience in software or engineering‑adjacent roles
• Bonus: experience at a venture-backed startup or high‑growth scale‑up, familiarity with agile tooling (Jira, Linear), or an MBA with a technical undergraduate degree
